Best way to go, I think.

I am trying to manually reprogram at this point

The manual is wrong. This has been known for years. You can change or
delete
any of the presets. There are two frequency lists preset in the
radio. One
is for radios sold in NA and the other for Europe. I don't remember
the
sequence of events that cause the switch but it happens. There are
two ways
of getting the factory default settings (NA) back. Either manually
reprogram
it or send it back to the factory.

According to the manual, you can not change the preset shortwave
stations
stored in your receiver memory. You can however, store programmed
memory
into the blank spaces in your memory pages.

If you set your radio to Page 1, position 1, you should see
Australia and
a
freq of 5.995

To do this, hold down the "page" button until the page number on
the
display
begins to flash. Then use the up and down buttons to move to the
page you
want. Once you have the page you want, hit the enter key and your
radio
will be set to this page and freq.

Example: Hit SW, HOLD PAGE until page number flashes, use up
arrows to
move
to page 7, then hit enter. Now the page numbe ris not flashing, so
hit
the
#3 on your touchpad and you will be on a freq of 9745 in the 31m
band.

I live on the west coast of the US. I have a DX-398 that is
about 6
years old. Recently I changed my "world" time from London to New
York,
leaving my home time as Los Angeles. The trouble being that
after I
made the change, I got a completely different station list (I get
DW,
BBC --D--, RFI, etc.) I would like to know how to set this list
back
to its factory defaults.

I have tried:

* setting "world" time back to London
* using the "reset" feature
* Taking out the batteries

I would like to know what else I can do.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
